title: Coding considerations in design of cochlear prostheses.
abstract: Some basic considerations in design of multichannel auditory nerve array stimulators and sound processors for an electrical stimulation cochlear prosthesis are briefly reviewed. Considerations specific to the design of strict auditory nerve simulation-based prostheses are discussed, as are considerations for production of channel vocoder-based and more purely information-based prostheses.
